"Manchester United" manager David Moyes claims that it was not him who chose the players bought before the season. According to the former "Everton" manager, the list of potential newcomers was compiled by the retired coach Alex Ferguson. "The transition period was difficult because I wasn't officially appointed until July 1. Sir Alex laid out his vision for me and what kind of players we needed. I also wanted to give the existing players a chance," Moyes said. "I think we will acquire new players in January. However, it will be very difficult because 'Man Utd' always wants to buy only top-level players and we might just not get them," the coach said.
